Introduction

With rapid development and increasing complexity of computer and communications systems and networks, user requirements for trust, security and privacy are becoming more and more demanding. However, there is a grand challenge that traditional security technologies and measures may not meet user requirements in open, dynamic, heterogeneous, mobile, wireless, and distributed computing environments. Therefore, we need to build systems and networks in which various applications allow users to enjoy more comprehensive services while preserving trust, security and privacy at the same time. As useful and innovative technologies, trusted computing and communications are attracting researchers with more and more attention.

The 10th IEEE International Conference on Trust, Security and Privacy in Computing and Communications (IEEE TrustCom-11) will be held in Changsha, China in November 16-18, 2011. It results from merging two conference series: TrustCom (International Symposium on Trusted Computing and Communications) and TSP (International Symposium on Trust, Security and Privacy for Emerging Applications). It follows the success of TrustCom-10 in Hong Kong SAR, China, and TSP-10 in Bradford, UK. The conference aims at bringing together researchers and practitioners in the world working on trusted computing and communications, with regard to trust, security, privacy, reliability, dependability, survivability, availability, and fault tolerance aspects of computer systems and networks, and providing a forum to present and discuss emerging ideas and trends in this highly challenging research field.

Submission and Publication Information

The accepted papers from this conference will be published by IEEE Computer Society in IEEE proceedings (indexed by EI Compendex and ISTP). Papers should be written in English conforming to the IEEE conference proceedings format (8.5″ x 11″, Two-Column). Papers should be submitted through the paper submission system at the conference website. Each paper is limited to 8 pages (or 12 pages with the over length charge). Distinguished papers, after further revisions, will be published in three SCI & EI indexed special issues: (1) Elsevier’s Journal of Computer and System Sciences (Impact Factor: 1.631); (2) IET Information Security (Impact Factor: 0.862), and (3) Wiley’s Security and Communication Networks (Impact Factor: 0.356). The program committee will select two winners for the Best Paper Awards for this conference. Submitting a paper to the conference means that, if the paper is accepted, at least one author should attend the conference and present the paper. For no-show authors, their papers will be removed from the digital library after the conference and their affiliations will be notified.
